From the Preface to the edition of 1904. This little pamphlet contains the State laws of all the States of the Union regulating the running of automobiles on the public highways as amended up to the date of its issue. The compilation of these laws has involved considerable labor and care, as it was desired to have the publication complete and absolutely reliable, and it is believed that this has been accomplished. The automobile has been so wonderfully improved and perfected within the past ten years that even the novice is no longer content to run his car within the limits of his own city, county or State, but, like Alexander, seeks new worlds to conquer, and a trip which carries him beyond the limitations of his own State law is now no novelty. To meet this condition, it has been thought wise to place within the reach of all tourists, members of the Club, the laws of all the States, so that no matter how far afield one may stray, he can have with him in compact form the law of the State into which his venturesome spirit may lead him. A very copious index has been prepared which will enable those seeking information to find in a moment the particular provision to which it is desired to refer.
